解蔽伍尔夫的新传记--以《奥兰多》为例

The Uncovering of Woolf’s New Biographies--Take“Orlando”as an Example

作为新传记的倡导者,伍尔夫意识到了传统传记在还原传主生活时,可能会出现的失实或者脸谱化等缺陷。她打破了传记和小说的楚河汉界,重新诠释了对真实的理解。在新传记中,传主可以是顺应时代精神的大人物,也可以是普通的男人或者女人。他们都可以在新传记中吐露心声,书写自己的困惑。书写历史不应该只是男性的专属,女性也可以有自己的视角,发出自己的声音。伍尔夫在作品中流露出对性别包容性的思考,呼吁读者们理解和尊重性别的差异与多样性,打破偏见对性别的桎梏。

As an advocate of new biographies, Woolf realized that traditional biographies may be inaccurate or stereotyped when they restore the subject’s life. She broke through the boundaries between biography and fiction and reinterpreted the understanding of truth. In a new biography, the subject can be a great figure in the spirit of the times, or an ordinary man or woman. They can all speak in their new biographies and write about their perplexities. Writing history shouldn’t be just for men. Women can have their own perspective and voice. Woolf’s work reflects on gender inclusiveness, calling on readers to understand and respect gender differences and diversity, and to break the shackles of gender prejudice.
